The number of ICE reports around the Twin Cities are growing rapidly today. Maybe it's time to bring out the snowplows?

My main takeaway from the Jack Smith testimony: we should push our presidential candidate to make him Attorney General in 2029.

Hundreds of pages fully redacted, just blacked out. Guess Trump thinks Americans deserve a lump of coal.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Took to the House floor today because in just 2 weeks, 22 million Americans will see their premiums explode if Republicans refuse to act.
After 15 years, Republicans still have no plan — just higher costs and less coverage.

Exactly why AI is bullshit. It's an early lesson when you take computer science: garbage in, garbage out. AI is not trustworthy.
This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.
The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Good time to download the free mPING app and become a citizen scientist by submitting precip and other types of reports to the National Weather Service and greater weather-interested community.

Be careful out there folks. Influenza is spreading like wildfire. Apparently, the Canadians have determined the vaccine is a mismatch this year. Wife and I are both vaxxed and sick as dogs. Test confirmed Influenza A.

Geese heading south now. It's pretty cool the things our radars can see.

Amongst all going on tonight, I post this radar velocity image. No weather, just the last of bird migration. The radar is the little black circle in the middle. All the birds in green above where the radar is are heading south. Those below it in red are also heading south.

To be clear, I am antifa. I have taken an oath to the Constitution multiple times, reaffirming so. My ancestors were as well. We're American. Not Russian, Nazi, maga, or any stupid shit like that. We are, correctly, the melting pot. Neighbors. Americans. I'll be at No Kings. Support each other.

It would be good if the war on science by the weirdo conspiracy crowd ended. At the same time, science doesn't care.

A very rare Alberta Clipper in early September. Normally, this happens midwinter and is all snow. It's all rain at this time of year. Interesting radar presentation.

In the world of weird: Chewy has commercials featuring doggos Homer, Radar, and Dash. We had Homer, who passed in 2015, then adopted Radar in 2019. This year, we adopted Dash. Homer and Dash were not named by us. Sometimes, the neighbor's labradoodle comes to play with the boys. Her name is Chewy.
